# Bosnia memorial vandalism > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/bosnia-memorial-vandalism > Updated: 2026-07-27T12:42:18.000Z. Sources: 9. Developments: 2. In mid‑July 2026, a severed swine head was left near the central monument in Mostar’s Liska park, a burial site for Bosniak victims of the 1992 siege. The act prompted the cancellation of a ceremony marking the 34th anniversary of the First Mostar Brigade and drew condemnation from the city mayor, police, federal officials and veteran groups, who called for a swift investigation and stronger site protection. Two weeks later, the Mostar Muftijstvo publicly denounced a series of hate‑symbol attacks in Livno, where Ustaša insignia were painted on the historic Firdus mausoleum and other sites, and Bosnian‑Herzegovinian flags were torn and burned on a sports field. The religious authority urged the Ministry of Interior and prosecutors to pursue thorough investigations and warned that defiling sacred sites and displaying fascist symbols fuels unrest. Together, the incidents illustrate an escalating pattern of extremist vandalism targeting war memorials and religious symbols in Bosnia and Herzegovina, prompting coordinated calls from local officials and religious leaders for accountability and stronger safeguards. ## Timeline ### 2026-07-27: Mostar Muftijstvo condemns hate-symbol vandalism in Livno, Bosnia and Herzegovina Mostar Muftijstvo denounces Ustaša symbols painted on Livno's Firdus mausoleum, Duman spring and other sites, urging police and prosecutors to investigate and prosecute. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/mostar-muftijstvo-condemns-hate-symbol-vandalism-in-livno-bosnia-and-herzegovina ### 2026-07-13: Mostar cemetery swine head incident provokes condemnation A swine head was placed at Mostar's Liska harem cemetery on the day of the 34th anniversary of the First Mostar Brigade, prompting officials to condemn the act, cancel the ceremony and launch a police inquiry. 6 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/mostar-mayor-condemns-pig-head-left-at-wartime-memorial-in-liska-park --- Cite as: Bosnia memorial vandalism.
